Hi Maurice and Fred,
Hope you did not mind my comments to your post on Goanet. I have not followed
all tit-bits of information on the Inquisition in Europe; as I follow regarding
the same history in Goa.
Yet from the little I know, long before the Inquisition was introduced in
Europe, there

If "millions of frogs" are being born in Goa every year, millions are dying. If
all the "millions of frogs", lived and did not die, Goa would be overrun by
"billions of frogs" by now which is not the case. Clearly the frog population
is threatened and hence it is against the law to kill or cons

Dear Sapna,
Don't be unnecessarily perturbed by the abundance of chauvinism which abounds
on Goanet. As a survivor of such chauvinism, I can assure you that their bark

Dear Sapna,
I am glad that you are easily flattered.
I am sure you will agree that NOT all who make trouble, do it
intentionally or are communal. Those who stir the pot (perhaps for
whatever reason or for no reason at all) are still pot stirrers.

based on political interest, and communal ideologies.
